The Ojai Music Festival is a creative music laboratory which has nurtured many of the most important artists and composers to international prominence for over the past 60 years. Emerging and established artists of national and international reputation, programs highlighting works that are seldom performed in regular concert seasons, a passionate and culturally curious audience, and an enchanting outdoor venue combine to create an intimate and thought-provoking musical experience. The condensed four-day festival schedule offers both audiences and performers a unique opportunity for immersion in new music and groundbreaking artistic ideas. The Ojai Music Festival also leads the future of classical music off the stage through symposia, lectures, community events, and its Bravo! education program in the school. (Less)
Ratings are calculated from one or more beacon scores. Currently, we require either an Accountability & Finance beacon or an Impact & Results beacon to be eligible for a Charity Navigator rating. Note: The absence of a rating does not indicate a positive or negative assessment; it only indicates that we have not yet evaluated this organization.
See rating report below to learn why this organization is not currently eligible.
We recognize that not all metrics and beacons equally predict a charity’s success. The percentage each beacon contributes to the organization’s overall rating depends on the number of beacons an organization has earned.
Use the tool below to select different beacons to see how the weighting shifts when only one, two, or three beacons are earned.
